The Behavioral Health Center at Bay Regional Medical Center devotes 21 beds
to provide individual treatment interventions for adults, 18 years and older who
require 24-hour psychiatric
services.
Before admission to our behavioral health program, patients undergo a
comprehensive evaluation to determine an individual’s psychiatric, physical and
medical status to help establish the most appropriate level of care.
Our goal is to provide quality care to prevent, support and treat mental,
emotional, and behavioral conditions to help the patient resume their lives as
quickly as possible. The professional treatment team guides the patient and
family toward alternative coping skills, evaluate medications, promote wellness,
and strive to achieve the optimum level of functioning for each individual.
Recommendations for an assessment may be made by a physician, psychiatrist,
social worker, nurse, mental health professional, minister, judge, law
enforcement officer, family member, friend, employer, or employee. In an
emergency, go to nearest emergency room.
